I am receiving low memory warnings and freezes on a regular basis while idling. I've gone through most of the google recommend trouble shooting steps and I'm stuck with a weird recurring error in the event log. I have run a virus scan with malwarebytes… no hits.
I understand LogonUI.exe is part of windows. This is not normal windows 8.1 behavior. Why is LogonUI.exe trying to use more memory than what is available to my system? Is there any chance this is a hardware issue or does it have to be software?
OS: windows 8.1 pro
RAM: 8 GB
Event Log in question:
Event 2004, Resource Exhaustion-Detector

Best Answer
Uninstalling "HP Simple Pass" from programs and features solved the problem for me.
I found the solution for it here: technet forum
